摘要
Objective:To investigate the anxiolytic activity of newly isolated compound by our lab called ursolic acid stearoyl glucoside(UASG) from the leaves of Lantana camam(L camam).Methods: Column chromatography was used to isolate UASG.Anxiolytic potential was experimentally proved and demonstrated through Elevated plus-maze,Open field and light and dark test. Results:The UASG showed marked increased in time spent(%) and number of frequent movements made by animals in open arm of elevated plus-maze apparatus.In light and dark model,UASG produced marked increase in time spent by animal,number of crossing and reduced duration of immobility in light box.Conclusions:UASG showed significant increase in number of rearing,assisted rearing and number of square crossed in open field established test model.UASG showed its anxiolytic effect in dose dependent manner.
